Title: Why does Vanessa like to play alone?
Post by: Zz_Rinse_zZ on August 29, 2004, 10:13:12 am: Eu estava vendo que Vanessa prefere não levar sua banda para tocar junto com ela. Todos os White Houses ao vivo que tenho, ela canta só no piano... Mas por que isso?

I was seeing that Vanessa doesn't like to take her band to play with her. All White Houses live version I got, she sings only with the piano. Why?

Post by: LimeTwister on August 29, 2004, 11:39:53 am: Some artists bring their band with them...So I am sure there is a better reason than there is no room.

Like the one shades gave lol. Shades is still here to help out.

Post by: Xenophanes on August 29, 2004, 01:50:20 pm: Where'd y'all find out that she's not going to have a band with her? I mean, I guess it sounds cool and all, but rather...unorthodox...I dunno, I haven't heard any of the Harmonium songs (studio versions) except for White Houses, so if they're all very heavily piano based, it would make sense...

Post by: Vultch on August 29, 2004, 02:35:52 pm: The disinformation Zz_Rinse_zZ is spreading is starting to get old fast.
All the White Houses performances thus far have been in the radio studios were she has always played solo, even when promoting ATM & OD.
On real tours (not just promotion gigs, she has a band (Nate-less now it would seem).

He is perhaps calling the upcoming tour the radio tour which is in fact alone because of the reasons vulture stated. I cannot imagine Vanessa doing an actual fan driven tour solo... it would be fairly unsuccessful

Post by: LimeTwister on August 29, 2004, 03:51:10 pm: Good points...

but wouldn't it be current tour instead of upcoming, then?

I know, I'm probably taking it too literal.

Title: " About my topic "
Post by: Zz_Rinse_zZ on September 12, 2004, 11:06:56 am: :cry: Some time ago, i asked here about vanessa: Why does she prefer to sing alone? and some of "fãs" said that she just sing alone because she coudn't take a "band" to the radio, but, last performance she could take and she didn't. I think now someone can understand me and answer me. Why does she prefer to sing alone? :wink:

I merged this with your original topic. Don't start new threads for the same discussion.

Post by: Scotty on September 12, 2004, 11:24:46 am: maybe it's because

A)she doesnt have to pay for a band to play with her
B)it's much easier to set up
C)the piano/vocal creates a more mellow atmosphere
D)having her and the piano means it's more intimate
